I think it should go into solarpunk art or solarpunk propaganda
“Meme” it’s a very general concept ok, but here in the sub “memes” is clearly for the comedy ones lol
It’s just artwork with catchy slogan, no laugh involved u.u
You’re right, but squid guy can do whatever he wants, in my book. He gets all the leeway for maintaining this place
so because he controls the means of production he gets to decide? is this capitalism? 😳😏🤓
No one says cash is a scam because the finance bros on wall street use it to scam people in far worse ways.
But for some reason it’s functionally impossible to separate crypto from the scamers who use it.
Well, the crypto bros only seem to come up with scammy uses for crypto, whereas cash can be exchanged for goods and services.
Doesn’t mean there are no uses for crypto. Protesters and activists use it to fund their campaigns, for example. Or sanctions often have collateral damage that can be circumvented using crypto; for example, cutting Russia off the traditional financial system means, among other things, inability to financially support Ukrainians or the army, and on top of that, inside the country you’ll be jailed if the police knows.
I personally use crypto from within Russia to rent a VPN server, and to support projects that do accept it.
Now, the other point is that proof-of-work consensus mechanism behind many of the crypto projects relies on ever-heavier computing, and while it remains unrivaled in terms of decentralization, it is not eco-friendly, which is very bad. Luckily, proof-of-stake cryptos exist, and their footprint is minimal.
That’s not true, crypto is also useful for illicit purchases.
Awww… I want a peanut…
EXPLAIN HOW!
there is a very small subset of cryptos that can be exchanged for real world goods and services too.
let me introduce you to my new invention: SuperDuperCoin!I’m joking. but the first part is true.
Both things can be true: cash is a scam and so is crypto. The reason I despise crypto is because they just reinvented capitalism, when the old one was working just fine (in the sense that capitalism is not a broken system: it is functioning just as designed, benefiting the ruling class). So now we’ve got two ways they’re scamming us.
Money is not capitalism. You can have money without capitalism, as the whole world did for most of recorded history.
Adobe and apple are the only ones who gets to scam me!
